I had CD4 at 442 and viral load over a million right at seroconversion. My doctor started me on Atripla right away. He is definitely of the line of thought that early treatment has long term benefits, though I understand there are other medical viewpoints on this. I trust him though so we'll see what these numbers are in October.

I started meds shortly after seroconversion (within a few months at most). My CD4 was over 900, but starting immediately sounded like the best option. I wish it hadn't taken an extra month waiting for all the tests to come back. I could've started 4 weeks earlier, lol.
